The concept of the “Nut Full House Freeroll” in Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) illustrates another key strategic point in the game: the potential to improve a strong hand to an even stronger one, and the inherent advantages of higher cards in certain situations.
Understanding the Nut Full House Freeroll
In the example provided, you hold A-K-Q-J on a flop of Q-Q-J. This gives you the best possible full house at that moment, queens full of jacks. Your opponent, holding Q-J-T-9, also has a full house, but it’s the same as yours: queens full of jacks. The critical difference here is your potential to improve your hand. If an Ace or a King hits on the turn or river, your hand upgrades to a higher full house (aces full or kings full), thereby winning the entire pot. Statistically, there’s a 27.4% chance of this happening by the river
